Abstract
Stem cells are defined as cells that have the self-renew capacity and the ability to differentiate into one or more cell types. Recently, stem cell biology has become an interesting topic, especially because of the potential to use it in regenerative medicine. Several types of human stem cells have been isolated and identified in vivo and in vitro . This review highlights the characteristics and therapeutic potential of human dental progenitor/stem cells.
